Along with the already mentioned (everyone knows who Luis Miguel is in Mexico and worships him like he were a god or something):
Brozo, Tony Dalton, Sheryln, Lucero, Silverio Palacios, Edith Gonzalez, Paola Nuñez, Lolita CortĂ©s, Ludwika Paleta (mexican by nationalization), Javier Alatorre, Cuahtemoc Blanco, Jorge Campos, Rafael Marquez, (well, any member of the mexican national soccer team), Hugo Sanchez, major politicians like Lopez Obrador Santiago Creel, Madrazo, CuahtĂ©moc Cardenas, Felipe Calderon, Vicente Fox, Martha SahagĂșn, etc...

You know someone is generically famous in Mexico if they show up in an article of the TV y Notas magazine.

You can find a lot of information about Francisco Villa, who is a hero in Mexico and a criminal according to U.S. He participated in the Mexican Revolution war in 1910; he is, officially, the only person who has invaded United States continental territory and launched an attack. This happened in Columbus, New Mexico.
Also you can research about Emiliano Zapata, who was one of the main fighter against the dictatorship of Porfirio Diaz during the time of the Mexican Revolution.
Google these two names, there should be tons of websites w/ info.

Well I'm not Mexican but I am hispanic so let me list some:

Thalia- Actress and singer.

Paulina Rubio- Singer.

Veronica Castro- Actress.

Lorena Ochoa- World's number one woman golfer.

Rodolfo Neri Vela- the first Mexican in space.




That's about all I can think of right now. (;
